1. The Bloomberg effect?

Mike seems to have really riled him up. BB isn't on my favorites list, but I approve of what he's doing to Trump.

Also, Trump's circling the wagons post-impeachment, including bringing back former staff, probably so they don't/can't go public and/or write books.

2. Each one of these actions are straight from the authoritarian playbook

Couple this with Rachel's show last night, and it's clear a slo-mo coup (of-sorts) is underway.

3. He's trying to control all the narrative,

even if the narrative is controversial or negative. This is very desperate behavior. Trump must’ve got wind of something brewing against him.
